Abstract

A total of 23 items are from Gustav Mahler; 6 of these are addressed to Alma Mahler: 3 are envelopes (of which the contents are not extant); 1 is a transcript of a telegram; and 2 are postcards, 1 of which was inserted by Alma between the pages of her diary at the entry for 25 June 1900 (see Tagebuch-Suiten ed. by Beaumont and Rode-Breymann, Suite 18). 1 item from Gustav Mahler is a draft of a poem (or song lyrics) noted on the reverse of a fragment of a letter from an unidentified correspondent. Two letters from Mahler to Anton Krisper (in 1879-1880) contain poems by him; several additional passages of poetry (in 1882 and 1884) are also included among Mahler's letters as transcribed by Alma (they were apparently written on the reverse of letters or drafts of letters). One letter from Mahler (incomplete transcript) is to an unidentified addressee. Included are a photocopy of a photograph of Rosa Sucher, with an inscription from her (for the original, see Photographs); and a transcript of an article by the music critic Josef Sittard for the Hamburgischer Correspondent, about Mahler's conducting in Hamburg.
